About this listen

Ezra Toth is your typical sword for hire. A dark past, a few secrets, a talent for killing, with a sharp sword and sharper wit. Perhaps his several dozen cats are a bit unique but other than that....

He returns from an ordinary, arduous job to find representatives of the crown waiting for him at his home - not so typical. They bring him to the crown prince who has a problem only Ezra can solve. Crown Prince Christophe's brother, and possibly even the king himself, are part of a plot to assassinate him. With no idea who in the palace is truly loyal to who, Ezra must navigate a myriad of potential suspects whilst protecting the heir.

I loved all the characters and their interactions. It was boring in between but I still wanted to know what happens so I kept listening. I don't really like John Solo's narration that much but this one was great. The way each character was strong and determined in their own way was very nice. I would have liked to know a little more of the future at the end but it was still a good ending.

A refreshing story
